From@VKleinbergsI’m sure we all know that the reconstruction of the Vanšu Bridge will be one of the most important construction projects in the country. This bridge is important not only for Riga residents but for all Latvians. I want to emphasize that the plans have not changed: the major reconstruction works will begin in autumn 2027, and until then no significant traffic restrictions are expected. Given the current information, the conclusion is clear — the most optimal solution is a temporary bridge. It would significantly reduce congestion, so I have instructed the department to prepare a solution for installing a temporary bridge. And until the temporary bridge is installed, I will not allow traffic to be closed. So we have a choice — either rent a temporary bridge for up to 20 million euros, or order a new one for the same amount. We concluded that it is more economically advantageous not to “burn” 20 million euros on rent, but to buy a new temporary bridge that the state could later use for its material reserves. Such a bridge would be useful not only for Riga but for the whole country, if we are talking about civil and military security. To accomplish this task, cooperation between Riga and the state is needed. That is why I have already discussed this issue with the Minister of Transport; this week I will go to the Saeima, meet with LTRK and the Ministry of Finance, and I have also sent a letter to the Prime Minister inviting him to meet and agree on cooperation. This could be a good example where the state cooperates with Riga and everyone benefits. So I am confident that agreement is possible.

From@liana_langa. @KNL_LTV1 today's program only once again confirmed to me how much Latvia needs the Declaration already submitted to the Saeima on preventing the consequences of occupation and Russification, which is one of the central goals of my policy. Then various jokers won't be able to babble about 'attacks on the Russian language,' because everyone will understand that Latvia has experienced the crime of Russification - linguicide, Russification! #AtkrieviskoLatviju https://t.co/7fdU27umCF https://t.co/Fg6lgUK2Yq

From@AndisVaic@zuravlevs @ziimulis5 @asocgimene @AndrisKulbergs @Apvienotais_ @EdvardsSmiltens @Edgars_T In general, the wrong values are held by nationalists who instill fear and aggressiveness in children.

@AndisVaic @ziimulis5 @asocgimene @AndrisKulbergs @Apvienotais_ @EdvardsSmiltens @Edgars_T Statistics from the US substance use center. Homosexuality is a wrong value. It should not be passed on to children.
From@AndisVaic@zuravlevs @ziimulis5 @asocgimene @AndrisKulbergs @Apvienotais_ @EdvardsSmiltens @Edgars_T They put some canned picture as some kind of evidence. But then it turns out that heterosexual couples are also not allowed to adopt children, because as seen they also drink and use drugs. You also didn't answer about those wrong values that then prevent adopting a child.
